Answer:

The stronger electrolyte is the HCl

Explanation:

Stronger electrolyte are the ones, that in water, completely dissociates.

HCl(aq) → H⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq)

HCl(aq) + H₂O(l) → H₃O⁺ (aq)  +  Cl⁻(aq)

Both are acids, they bring protons to medium but the hydrochloric completely dissociates.

HF (aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄  H₃O⁺(aq) +  F⁻(aq)           Ka

In the dissociation of weak electrolytes, they ionize but at the same time they bond again, so the reaction is always kept in equilibrium.

When electrodes are used to record the electrocardiogram, an electrolyte gel is usually put between them and the surface of the
klemol [59]

Answer:

The equivalent circuit for the electrode while the electrolyte gel is fresh

From the uploaded diagram the part A is the electrolyte, the part part B is the electrolyte gel when is fresh and the part C is the surface of the skin

Now as the electrolyte gel start to dry out the resistance R_s of the gel begins to increase and this starts to limit the flow of current . Now when the gel is then completely dried out  the resistance of the gel R_s then increases to infinity  and this in turn cut off flow of current.

The diagram illustrating this is shown on the second uploaded image
